7 RULES Of Church Communications Strategy [POLICY Template]

[@prochurchtools]

One of the most important videos I've ever published! Hope you find it helpful. So many church comms problems will get solved when policy like this is implemented. I believe in you! ✅

[@thegathering6065]

Aye my guy, thanks for all that stock footage for download! We've used some of them like the waves crashing as worship backgrounds! Keep up the good work because you've got great content!

MADE IT. Watched it for the second time. Gonna watch it a couple more times before I go tell my church that we've been doing it wrong for years😐😂

[@EugeneLimPhotograpy]

MADE IT!! thank you so much for the insights of comms strategy, Brady!

[@christiansongs8038]

Blessings from arabian ex muslim, keep doing great brother in Christ 🙏💓

[@HelloMattJames]

"MADE IT" (R.I.P. Water Bottle) and worth every second. Your deep and specific insight highlights your wealth of experience in this field. THANK YOU and YOUR TEAM for making this video.

[@prochurchtools]

Thanks for the kind words, Matt 🙏

[@marcusjones7248]

MADE IT.. Another Great vid Brady

[@heidiarmstrong4484]

MADE IT. We just had our Annual Church Planning meeting, and we're working on developing a Communications team and strategies. I'm really enjoying watching your videos to at least give us a place to start the conversation. Thank you!

[@PhilipDosa]

I watched 90% of this video and thought I'd check the comments before leaving the video and saw that I was going to miss out on an epic water bottle fail. You got me to 100%. Well. done.

[@prochurchtools]

So glad you saw it through

[@lauraklabe2259]

God works in mysterious ways. This came up as a suggestion notification today and ive never needed it more. "Getting tired of people just not getting involved???" Exactly what were dealing with rn with our thanksgiving event on Saturday. The church has been doing this event for 20+ years and every year its still like pulling teeth to get help or people to just sign up in advance to help

[@prochurchtools]

So glad it found you at a good time

[@adamkrumrie3909]

MADE IT - thank you for your relentless work in helping THE CHURCH thrive. I look forward to your videos every time I get the notification. You and your team have blessed us so much.

[@prochurchtools]

That’s awesome, Adam. Thanks.

[@epmacbball]

Made it! I'm a new family minister at my church, and I'm taking all of this in. Thank you so much!

[@Nicole-jps]

MADE IT! Loved it. Getting very valuable insight on church comms from someone who understands the joy and the pain of church comms makes my heart cry happy tears. Thanks so much!! God bless you!

[@emilygraff2089]

MADE IT! So helpful, clear and doable. This is changing the way I am thinking about Comm as a Comm director.

[@carlocorral]

MADE IT!! And funny enough I dropped my phone as Brady was dropping his water bottle. Very useful and on point information, practical, systematic and ready to implement. I'm excited to start putting these into practice. Thanks Brady! Great stuff. Such a blessing, we sometimes feel clueless specially in these times.

[@salemumcbrookeville]

MADE IT! (with the whole comms team watching for training. Thanks Brady!) (Also, we're all over 60 and feeling very young.)

[@salemumcbrookeville]

Just made it.. again!

[@ashleybailey615]

MADE IT. As a social media strategist for a church, I can’t say thank you enough!!

[@DevinFraze]

MADE IT! Super informative. I usually don't comment on videos, but I'm beyond grateful for all this free advice!

[@prochurchtools]

Grateful to hear that, Devin. Thanks for taking the time to comment. 🤝

[@randywesterberg2488]

MADE IT! This is just what our church needs! Thank you!

[@atle_mannya]

MADE IT!! Planning on implementing this for my church in 2022

[@12coaching]

Loved the video, especially the end with the mug taking a dive. As a newly licensed minister, I like the communication structure and the concept of next steps. Thanks

[@myclementboy]

MADE IT! Finally got a super clear and inspiring method for digital funneling for church. So great, so helpful .... Blessings from Indonesia

[@justinsheehanfitness9191]

MADE IT. Because of COVID Ive been led into ministry on our churches media team. Safe to say Ill be watching a more!

[@prochurchtools]

Appreciate your time!

[@mountainmoverschurch1811]

MADE IT! Unlike the water bottle ... RIP Didn't struggle at all watching this... the context was too good to want to quit early. Thank you again Pro Church Tools team for being A M A Z I N G

[@prochurchtools]

Appreciate the love!

[@rmangold]

Made it! 2-years later, but I made it! Funny the bottle fell. My OCD kept looking ever so often at the ding in your bottle and wondering what happened. Your ending answered Tip #8 - Keep your water bottle out of the way! Great stuff brother - thanks for helping us get better! Our team just discovered your material and they're drooling over it all as we speak!

[@moiralonge1531]

MADE IT! All the way from South Africa! Thank you - very helpful.

[@debiduke6553]

MADE IT! Right now, the congregation has no option but to go to our website for info because there's no bulletin or kiosk. BUT when we are back in the building, I think this strategy will help me get the rest of the staff on board to keep them going to the website and the kiosk because there ain't gonna be no bulletin for a while!

[@KrystalQuagliara]

This content is spot on! I'm so blessed to have found this KZbin channel!

[@mlac6071]

MADE IT! Started setting up the Central Hub Strategy at the beginning of the year, but after watching this video I realized we have gotten lazy and slipped back into old habits during the pandemic. Thanks for the reminder of the importance of having a strategy that revolves around a Central Hub.

[@prochurchtools]

Boom!

[@greenoakscoc]

MADE IT! Thanks for this info. Trying to get our digital ministry off the ground--currently a one-man team. Culture shock is so real; but we're doing everything we can to stay true to God's plan for churches, while engaging the tools of technology we have in our hands today. Learned a lot!

[@jkbove]

MADE IT! Excellent suggestions. Excited to watch more and take the next steps!

[@brookeoflivingwater6974]

I haven't watched in a few months so I might be late in saying that your new style/arrangement/editing is YES. BRAVO

[@prochurchtools]

Appreciate it! Glad to have you back 🤝

[@BoGordyStith]

MADE IT! Thx much Brady for reminding us above all to inspire and to lead with the story of transformation when we encounter Christ. I love especially your encouragement and invitation to use comms for ministry instead of exclusively for promotion.

[@campusministry3235]

Normally don't comment... but the MADE IT with the epic water bottle catastrophe and titanic score.... I couldn't help myself! And I can't wait to implement this stuff for our promo!

[@prochurchtools]

Let’s go!

[@washingtonavenuechristianc3603]

MADE IT. We are looking at implementing this policy soon. You have been incredibly helpful to us!

[@MaryCatherineLowe]

MADE IT. What a phenomenal resource! Such a blessing!

[@redmanj]

MADE IT! Well done! Will be processing this one for a while!

[@shairacambara7795]

Thank you Pastor Brady very informational. We are a small congregation. Getting back to church has not been easy but God is with us dealing with social distancing taking temperatures sanitizing etc. Etc. Watched this video to the end. Will watch part one will be speaking with my husband since we are the Co Pastors helping my father and mother who are the Pastors of our church. Thank you again. God unless you and your family

[@joshmcquarrie61]

MADE IT! Pumped to start the grind of implementing this!

[@revbharvey5046]

MADE IT! But I reckon I'll be watching it again sometime. There's a lot here, and I'll need to lead others to make that change. Thanks for always challenging me in what I'm doing.

[@Eiffigy2077]

MADE IT! Love your videos Brady, and wow I feel like this video was made specifically for me right now.

[@shaynebannerman692]

MADE IT!! This is GOLD! I'm sharing with our new communications team.

[@alanday8905]

MADE IT! Brady, this is awesome! Thank you for all you are doing to help the church. Praise God for your ministry.

[@danyvame8506]

MADE IT! We're in a training right now about this ministry and this video makes a perfect match. Greetings from Mexico ✌🏻

[@HeyShahday]

MADE IT. This will be challenging, but it will sure be worth it. Thank you!

[@prochurchtools]

You got this!

[@wandajenkins4205]

MADE IT! Thanks for all this valuable information. I've already seen progress as we've implemented some of your strategies in church comm!

[@prochurchtools]

So great to hear, Wanda!

[@kclark777v]

MADE IT!! I always thought the problem was not enough communication through every channel. My 3 x 3 rule. Three popular church channels, at least three different times. Now I realize we just do too many promotions of ministry opportunities.

[@prochurchtools]

That’s a great takeaway 🙏

[@shouldirust]

MADE IT. Your point on inspiration vs information really resonated with me.

[@candy20279]

MADE IT! And I can't wait to share with a few folks at my church. Thank you for sharing your experiences with churches who are still infants when it comes to using social media.

[@JaredNaldyPark]

MADE IT - attempting to adapt this for missionaries on pre-field ministry.

[@rajrvis]

MADE IT , thanks Brady! I can see my pains as the volunteer webmaster/communications leader all here !

[@darren.williams]

MADE IT. And this was excellent. I also run a workshop providing continuing education for people in the precision cleaning industry. The Inspiration over Information comment was excellent, and it explains the social engagement numbers I am seeing in LinkedIn. Thanks!

[@kathypinot]

MADE IT! Thank you for the fantastic, straight-to-the-point, simple, yet inspiring tips.

[@StPaulsNobleton]

MADE IT! Thanks for pouring into the church, Brady.

[@andreanicole2006]

Made it! And holy cow you can cram a lot of words at high speed into a short period! (I'm the same...) I love the enthusiasm, but find myself needing an "air break" that never comes...just a wee pause here and there between sentences would provide some relief to the constant words! Love your channel and information.

[@prochurchtools]

Try that 0.75X speed ;)
